I've added some new journals to my regular rotation. I encourage you to check these guys out:

Let's see ... the first five were recommended by Weetabix. John Powers came after Jen7 in the dcmdnova Diaryland webring. I found A Life in the Day in my referrer log after he linked to my Someday, Someway essay. And Shellyland was recommended by Viv at First Person Particular.

Oh, and Monitor is back! Now if Vanessa would get her journal back online, instead galavanting around Magic Mountain with some very disreputable characters, all would be right with the world.

Can someone explain this to me? I've been receiving a lot of hits from people using Google to search for Ty Pennington, the carpenter on Trading Spaces. But when I search for Ty Pennington on Google, my site doesn't come up. I don't understand it.

And hey, what happened to Monitor? I went to her site this afternoon and found it password-protected. Very disappointing.

Apparently, there are many homeless people who live at Logan Airport in Boston. This strikes me as very odd. I can't imagine anyone living at Dulles or Washington National ... though of course now that I read this article I'm curious as to whether people do. My guess: no to the former, maybe to the latter. Dulles is so far from the city and so hard to reach via public transportation that you would pretty much have to stay at the airport all the time. Logan and DCA are both easy to reach via subway, meaning you could slip out now and then to go into the city if you wanted to.

Roger Ebert writes more than movie reviews; over the years, he's written essays for the Chicago Sun-Times about religion, politics, and literature. I loved his most recent foray outside of movie criticism, an analysis of the Bush family's recent visit to London.

People stay in line at DMV after man defecates on floor. Of course they stayed in line. You know how long the lines can get at the DMV.

What kills me about this story is how they responded to the poop on the floor: they left it on the floor for two hours while they waited for someone to come clean up the mess. What a bunch of pansy-asses! If I'd been there. I would have gone to the store, bought a mop, some rubber gloves and some ammonia and cleaned it up myself.
